Washington Needs from https://sports.yahoo.com/2018-nfl-team-needs-041500466--spt.html

Defensive Front Seven: The Redskins play with a rag-tag group up front, where they finished 29th in Football Outsiders’ run-defense DVOA and may lose ILB Zach Brown to free agency. Fellow free agent Junior Galette supplied a spark off the bench, leaving Washington’s outside pass rush thin if Galette moves on. Preston Smith maintains upside at age 25, but he has been a replacement-level edge presence to this point. To keep it simple, the Skins need more run stoppers and more pass rushers. 

Defensive Back: Expected to let Bashaud Breeland walk in free agency, even after trading away emerging star slot corner Kendall Fuller, the Redskins are left with only LCB Josh Norman and to-date spot starter Quinton Dunbar as bankable cornerback assets. 2017 third-round pick Fabian Moreau had promise coming out of UCLA, but couldn’t get on the field as a rookie. As the Skins are believed to have given up on Su’a Cravens,Montae Nicholson and Deshazor Everett are the remaining in-house candidates to compete opposite FS D.J. Swearinger. The Redskins’ pass defense should have been much better than it was the past two seasons. 

Pass Catcher: What once was one of the NFL’s deepest and most diverse pass-catcher corps enters the 2018 offseason with major question marks. Terrelle Pryor didn’t work out on a one-year deal, and Jordan Reed further showed he can’t be relied on to stay healthy. Vernon Davis is 34, and Josh Doctson’s development has been slow. Top WR Jamison Crowder is entering his contract year. In terms of alternative needs, running back and center are additional positions Washington may look to upgrade.

Good board for them given their needs. Went James and Vea

[gopherwrestler]

Still don’t understand people pushing safety here.

Finally an easy one.  Vea is the BPA IMO and a huge upgrade.

 

I'd put James next even though I don't love him.  I can't see him slipping too far when the actual draft comes around.

Went Vea and Ridley

Vea fits a need and definitely BPA for them too. Board fell pretty nicely for them 

[brownie man]

Went Vea than James

Vea next to J Allen will be a great combination
